Cinna Peyghamy

Cinna Peyghamy

When Cinna Peyghamy started exploring the relationship between the Persian goblet drum and modular synths, he quickly realized how much his new hybrid setup mirrored his identity. As the French-born son of Iranian immigrants who speaks Farsi with his parents but has never visited the country, the composer and sound artist found himself asking what to do with the ‘weight of this culture which is mine and not mine at the same time’. The Skin In Between, released last March, sees him plunge into this inquiry. Just as the dialogue between the two instruments is laid bare on the stage, so is a conversation between Peyghamy, ancestry, self, past, and present.
